Sistema Microwave Round Bowl | 915 ml Food Container with Steam Release Vent | BPA-Free | Red/Clear

This is a well-made, attractive microwaveable pot with a handy vented lid. It feels sturdy, cleans up well, and I imagine it will be perfect for soups, stews, and reheating leftovers. However, I must issue a warning to fellow porridge enthusiasts: this pot and porridge do not get along. I used it to make my usual morning oats, and after a couple of minutes in the microwave, there was what can only be described as a porridge explosion. The vent became a launchpad, ejecting a blob of scalding porridge just as I opened the door—straight onto my hand. The microwave interior looked like a dalmatian in oat-based camouflage. It took two bowls of soapy water and four microfibre cloths to restore order. To be clear: this isn’t a fault with the pot itself, but porridge is a volatile beast in the microwave, and this design doesn’t seem to tame it. I’ll continue using the pot for other things, but porridge will now be confined to hob-only rituals. Hope this helps someone avoid a breakfast ambush!

Nice little device which works very well. The lid closes very easily and tightly. Very strong, dishwashes well.

handy for work lunches, good size.

Exactly what you'd expect from Sistema, Good quality and very functional. Great for peas, beans brussels etc in the microwave

While visiting family in New Zealand, I noticed one of them using a Sistema microwave container, and I was instantly impressed by how simple yet clever the design was. When I got back to the UK, I discovered that Sistema products are available on Amazon, so I decided to try one for myself. I ordered the Sistema Microwave Round Bowl (915 ml) with Steam Release Vent — priced around £5, which I thought was excellent value for something so practical. As usual, it arrived the next day with Prime, and that’s always a big plus in my book. Straight out of the box, the quality stood out. The plastic feels thick, durable, and well-made, and the signature Sistema locking clips on the lid are solid — not flimsy like many cheaper alternatives. They click firmly into place and give real confidence that the lid won’t come loose while heating. Before using it, I gave it a quick wash, then tested it with some pre-cooked basmati rice. I added a splash of water, opened the steam vent, and microwaved it for just two minutes. The result? Perfectly heated rice, light and fluffy — and not a single bit of mess inside the microwave. I also really appreciate that Sistema uses BPA-free plastic, which is important to me, especially as someone who’s become more health-conscious since being in remission from cancer. It’s reassuring to know the materials are safe as well as durable. The rounded interior makes food easy to scoop out, and the bright colour means it’s easy to spot in the cupboard. It’s a small thing, but it adds to the overall sense of good design and attention to detail. This is one of those products that simply works — no fuss, no gimmicks, just smart design and reliable performance. I’ve already got my eye on a few other Sistema containers to add to the collection! Verdict: Excellent quality, heats food perfectly, and built to last. Highly recommended — Sistema really has mastered the art of microwave cookware.

Great. Bang on. Just what i wanted. Clean great too
